Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of photovoltaic brackets, and in particular to a flexible bracket side column connection structure that enhances the overall structure. Background Technology

[0002] As available land resources for photovoltaic power generation become increasingly scarce, flexible photovoltaic (PV) supports are gradually being applied in complex mountainous terrains due to their flexible deployment and high land utilization rate. However, compared to traditional fixed supports, flexible supports have fewer piles and lack rigid connections between rows, resulting in lower overall structural integrity. When the flexible support system is subjected to external forces (wind pressure, snow pressure, etc.), it is more prone to local deformation or buckling, which may alter the geometry of the entire support system. This, in turn, changes the tilt angle and position of the PV modules, causing them to lose their optimal operating posture and affecting power generation efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by providing a flexible support side column connection structure that enhances the overall structure.

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: a flexible support side column connection structure that enhances the overall structural integrity, including a left side column, a right side column, a connecting short rod, and a connecting long rod; the left side column has a first upper ear plate at the upper end of both sides and a lower ear plate at the lower end; the right side column has a second upper ear plate at the upper end of both sides, and the height of the second upper ear plate is the same as that of the first upper ear plate; the distance between the upper ear plate and the lower ear plate and the top of the side column is determined according to the overall system situation;

[0005] The connecting short rod is fixed by the first upper ear plate and the second upper ear plate, and the connecting long rod is fixed by the lower ear plate and the second upper ear plate.

[0006] Furthermore, the heights of the left and right columns are determined by the pile foundation height and the power generation angle of the component.

[0007] Furthermore, the left and right columns are fixed to the side column supports by bolts.

[0008] Furthermore, the lengths of the connecting short rod and the connecting long rod are determined by the spacing between the left and right columns and the spacing between rows.

[0009] Furthermore, the fixing method is a bolt connection.

[0010] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: After the flexible support side column connection structure of this utility model is installed on the flexible support side column, it can enhance the overall structure of the flexible support system, improve the rigidity of the flexible support system, transfer the force borne by the area with large wind pressure or snow pressure in the flexible support system to other areas of the support system, reduce the stress in the local area, thereby avoiding local deformation or structural instability, and thus improving the safety and stability of the system.

[0017] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments, and the purpose and effects of the present invention will become more apparent.

[0018] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, this utility model provides a flexible support side column connection structure to enhance the overall structural integrity, including a left side column 1, a right side column 2, an upper ear plate, a lower ear plate 4, a connecting short rod 5, and a connecting long rod 6. The upper ear plate includes a first upper ear plate 31 and a second upper ear plate 32. The upper ends of both sides of the left side column 1 are welded with the first upper ear plate 31, and the lower ends are welded with the lower ear plate 4. The upper ends of both sides of the right side column 2 are welded with the second upper ear plate 32, and the height of the second upper ear plate 32 is the same as that of the first upper ear plate 31. The distance between the upper and lower ear plates and the top of the side column is determined according to the overall system configuration. Figure 3 As shown, both the upper and lower ear plates 4 are trapezoidal in shape, with a circular through hole in the middle. Figure 4 As shown, the bottoms of the left column 1 and the right column 2 are fixed to the side column support by bolts; the heights of the left column 1 and the right column 2 are determined by the pile foundation height and the power generation angle of the component.

[0019] like Figure 2As shown, the left and right ends of the connecting short rod 5 are fixed with bolts through the first upper ear plate 31 and the second upper ear plate 32, respectively, and the connected short rod is in a horizontal state after installation; the upper and lower ends of the connecting long rod 6 are fixed with bolts through the lower ear plate 4 and the second upper ear plate 32, respectively. The lengths of the connecting short rod 5 and the connecting long rod 6 are determined by the spacing between the left column 1 and the right column 2, and the spacing between rows.

[0020] like Figure 5 As shown, the distance between the upper ear plate and the upper end of the side post is fixed, and the distance between the lower ear plate 4 and the upper ear plate is fixed. The distance between the bottom of the side post and the lower ear plate 4 can be adjusted according to the terrain and the arrangement of the flexible support system. After installation, an effective connection is formed between the left and right columns of the same row of photovoltaic modules, and an effective connection is also formed between the side posts of different rows. When a row of photovoltaic modules is affected by high wind pressure or snow pressure, the integrated side post structure can effectively distribute the local pressure to the entire system, reduce the stress on the local side posts, avoid local deformation or instability, and thus enhance the safety, stability, and wind and snow resistance of the entire flexible support system.
